This photo of sprouting bulbs in a wine glass came up when I put “drink” into the photo search for Cee’s Black and White Challenge Drinks
So I’ll remind folks it’s time to buy your narciss bulbs to force your Paperwhites to bloom in time for the holidays

wouldn’t they look lovely with High Tea

Beautiful Paperwhites, Carol. Thanks for the tip and the lovely photos.

You are on the right track, Carol. Back in the ’80s I had a friend who did a lot of photography for gardening catalogs. He approached his flower photos as “flower portraits”, lighting and posing them indoors and out. I think of him often as I take photos of the roses in our backyard. I look forward to seeing the results of your portrait sessions.

Lens and Pens does a lot of arty flower portraits too.
That would be a fun job photographing flowers might be easier than wiggly children. Well I have to plant mine first see how it goes. Oh and as I’m thinking about gardens. Where the #$!& is the rain?

A quick reminder: the wind also turns the flowers into wiggly children, but you can cut them and move’em indoors…
As far as the rain goes, we may have to wait until the new year.

We have a lot of smoke from the Trinity fire down here. The sunlight has been a soft, eerie yellow this afternoon.
